Re: Why so little info on the Pocket Beagle?

By the Mouser page at http://www.mouser.com/new/beagleboardorg/pocketbeagle/ it has a "SGX530 graphics accelerator" so it seems like it must have video. In my earlier looking around it seems like I ran across the fact that it has a micro (not mini) HDMI, so I wanted to double check that because I

Re: Is this the right list to discuss Debian problems on pinebook?

I found a little stuff at https://github.com/ayufan-pine64/linux-build linked from the Pinebook page at https://www.pine64.org/?page_id=5734. It's at least different than the repo you mentioned. Video, usb & wifi would just be drivers I think. Looks interesting but apparently you can't buy one

Re: found net prob, temp fixed. installed xfce4, how to autostart it?

I just log in as root, it's much simpler. If you don't know the root password just do sudo passwd and set one. Yes, I know you should never log in as root. I've been doing it for 20 years anyway. I don't think a window manager or whatever these things call themselves these days cares about

So this is on the rock64 or one of your pis? I thought the rock64 was too experimental to be able to use apt. Raspbian or Debian? On 9/24/17, Gene Heskett <ghesk...@shentel.net> wrote: > On Sunday 24 September 2017 11:59:57 Alan Corey wrote: > >> But what's the purpose of

Re: need sd card backup on r-pi-3b

But what's the purpose of having the gateway fields in interfaces if not to to be reliant on the routing table? But it's worth a shot, something like route add default gw 192.168.71.1 It's simple enough to undo it with route del default to take it back out if it doesn't work. I dunno, I haven't

Try obconf from openbox, I have 4 workspaces on my hp laptop done with that. I think it's LXDE. They survive reboots for me. On 9/24/17, Alan Corey <alan01...@gmail.com> wrote: > So this is on the rock64 or one of your pis? I thought the rock64 was > too experimental to be abl

Re: need sd card backup on r-pi-3b

Try putting your static route in interfaces, in the eth0 section with an up, like iface eth0 inet static address 192.168.71.3/24 netmask 255.255.255.0 up route add default gw 192.168.71.1 I think post-up might be too late, maybe there's a pre-up. On 9/24/17, Gene Heskett

There isn't some limit on number of machines that can connect coming from somewhere? Could be political/economic or technical. I see wifi routers advertised as only working with n clients. Sent from my Motorola XT1505 On Sep 24, 2017 4:35 AM, "Mark Morgan Lloyd" <

Re: satisfying the align-checking in parted?

gparted makes it a lot easier. If you want to be sure of the sector size look for an st... number then go to seagate.com and get a datasheet. 2048 seems small for a 1 TB drive, my 128 GB SD card uses 4096. Actually I'm not sure, this is a 1 TB Seagate and disklabel says: type: ESDI disk:

Why so little info on the Pocket Beagle?

I ordered one of these yesterday: http://www.mouser.com/new/beagleboardorg/pocketbeagle/ and I'd like to be up to my nose in fat PDFs to study about it but I can't find anything. If it's new on the market I guess that could explain it but I'm not sure it is. It's no stellar performer these days,
